Tatty Macleod Knows The Exact Difference Between The French And The English | Comedy Central Live

[@plumage.mp4]

French people do tend to use anglicisms. They use english words that looks like french words, is usually rooted in French, because William the Conqueror, and we use it for the English meaning. But that's because some of us watch too many American shows, not because we're trying to look fancy x)

[@thearcanamodernau8130]

I was going to say this, the French do use anglicisms, but always in a very informal context, never to sound fancy or "cultured" lol

[@thomascerisy6460]

I'm Parisian and moved to the UK for my English wife

[@soare279]

That “innit mate” had me, not gonna lie.

[@JerzyFeliksKlein]

She really needs to record a special

[@FrancisAccart]

Sous-titres en français: une grande espérance. ❤

[@SevenAnomone224]

Moderation. Yep. We are definitely not moderate. 😂

[@nicolaablett7790]

wonderful

[@travissobeck4939]

what about the cuisine!? 😂😂

[@Nicolas-ui4lo]

I can't help myself telling me I'm in love with her, even if I'm not sure why.

[@habl00pep]

Wait a minute, Tatty Macleod is not Scottish 😮

[@pqunit]

No - the French use English words all the time. Parking, Weekend.. And if you come to Canada, you will absolutely hear French people say "you know what I mean" in English at the end of a sentence. Young people often slip back and forth in conversation.

[@LabGecko]

But do you hear the British versions? All I hear here in Paris are American versions.

[@StuartKoehl]

One word-- Franglais.

[@2dcutout]

One of my favourite shows! Paul Taylor is brilliant

[@Phoca_Vitulina]

Great job, haha but there are a few English words sprinkled in conversation while speaking (at least for young people), but in a French accent, so sometimes it sounds very far from the English word itself mdr

[@Towalak]

Don't know what she's on about in that last thing, French people love to drop English words for absolutely no reason. There are probably thousands of anglicismes (yes there is a word for it). Just the other day, I heard someone looking at a menu and going 'ah ouais, je vais prendre le chicken'

[@danniefrenchpea63]

😂😂😂

[@bilp_bloup_bot]

c'est vrai qu'on utilise des mots anglais, mais là tu forces, on dit pas "chicken" pour dire poulet mdr, t'es tombé sur un original

[@TillyOrifice]

She should probably have been more specific about what she meant. It's true that there are a lot of English expressions in colloquial French, but when a French person says something like "le oueekend" he's probably not doing the same thing as the English person who pronounces, "Pièce de résistance" with all the accents carefully in place.

[@bilp_bloup_bot]

@@TillyOrifice pour le coup weekend c'est un des rares mots qu'on prononce a peu près correctement (autant que possible pour un français)

[@TillyOrifice]

@@bilp_bloup_bot But do you care?

[@sarahwbs]

She needs to meet some Acadien or Québécois French, they are *absolutely* sprinkling in some English when they speak 😂

[@miagilaani5853]

The French don't generally like what or how French Canadian speak. They don't even like the accents there. A French person said it's like comparing British English with the Hillbilly or Southern American English when it comes from Parisian (or in fact anywhere in France) and Canadian French.

[@thomasharter8161]

[@Comedy-nh3ti]

Different things mate, she is talking about French people talking like the British. Not Canadians and North Americans.

[@lizroberts1569]

Ah but they aren’t French, the French mock Quebecois 😂

[@WinterEdition]

Waiiiiiit….wasn’t she in Meribel last winter?

[@cyrilhaessig27]

Yep, ze Frenglish festival perhaps in January ?

[@trnobles]

If she thinks the English have no moderation, wait till she hears about the Americans…
